What to use to remove baked on gaskets?

What do you guys use to remove pieces of old gasket off of a intake manifold? A certain spray or a scraper?

Some expletives, a razor and a scotchbrite pad.

Permatex sells a spray-on gasket remover. I bought it at Checker for like... $4.00 or so. It makes removing them a lot easier.
